Monitoring Yarn/Cloudera application logs in production

I am NOT talking about Cloudera or Yarn system level logs. I am talking about applications running on Cloudera/Yarn infrastructure.

We have tens of Java and Python applications running on our Cloudera Infra, and all of them generate application logs. I am looking for the best way to monitor these logs for any errors and warnings. If it is a pure stand alone Java application, traditionally we can use one of these log scraper tools that send emails based on an expression matching (to detect error/warning/any other special situation). I am looking for something similar, that can monitor our application logs and emails us in real time for better production application support. If thinking about this like a traditional application log monitoring is not the right way, then I am happy to know if there are any better industry standard approaches. Thanks!

I guess the ElasticStack (https://www.elastic.co/de/) could be one approach to solve this. You could use FileBeats to send your application logs to Logstash which forwards it to ElasticSearch. You could then create a Watcher in Kibana which sends i.e. Emails based on some triggering condition (we use a webhook to send notifications into a MS Teams channel).

This solution should work at least in near-realtime (~1-2 minutes delay, but this also depends on your watcher configuration).
